Its inhabitants speak a mixed migrant vernacular, which developed in isolation from the Karelian Proper dialect continuum. This study uses linguistic-ethnographic insights from the region to investigate the lexical and grammatical structure of receding Kolvitsa Karelian. The last generation of speakers manifests a profusion of alternative forms, not only across but also within idiolects, and the study explores differ-ent factors giving rise to this variation.
